color: Is still young, red with garnet reflections.

bouquet: The olfactory profile contains different flavors of red fruit and black fruit with just a few of the notes of the evolution. The ripe cherry, citrus and some slight hint of spices, rather sweet, and some floral sensations (violet) are evident.

taste: From the first sip you perceive the tension of the wine that is at the beginning of its evolution but the roundness of the wine comes immediately after. The tannins are well perceived but they are silky and smooth. It is a seductive wine, already with a pleasant drinkability, though with a complex structure, difficult to arrive to its peak. It will be a pure pleasure to open a bottle from time to time to evaluate its evolution.
